# Remediations

## Overview

Visibility alone doesn’t reduce cloud costs or improve efficiency—action does. Remediation in OneLens helps you translate insights into impact by enabling direct, controlled resolution of cost leaks, policy violations, and inefficiencies.

Every recommendation or violation detected in OneLens can be addressed through structured remediation, helping you:

* **Accelerate savings** by instantly resolving unused or underutilized resources
* **Enforce compliance** without relying on manual intervention
* **Reduce operational burden** through repeatable and automated execution
* **Maintain control** with auditable, permission-aware actions

## Ways of Remediations

You can remediate in two powerful ways:

* [**Through Runbooks** ](/automate/remediations/runbooks.md)– Purpose-built, policy-driven scripts that let you act immediately or schedule safe, guided changes.
* **Terraform** – Infrastructure-as-Code-driven remediation for scalable, governed infrastructure correction.&#x20;

With remediation, you don’t just identify the problem—you fix it, securely and at scale.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.onelens.cloud/automate/remediations.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
